No Blocked Sites show in Firefox after Immunization

[tashi]

Hello DocCovington,

Uhm, sorry, I didn't know you would respond by e-mail. Couldn't find anything, either.

My question is simple: In older versions of FF, when I would immunize my sytem (and browsers) with Spybot, the malicious sites would usually show up as "Blocked" in the list of sites/cookies in FF. They no longer do and haven't for almost a year, so I was wondering why that is.

Do you know anything about it?

As far as I know this was the information provided.

"To view more information about the protection enabled by Immunization, please open detailed view of Immunization. Usually there are 4 rows for a Firefox user profile. Description of immunised items are in brackets: Cookies, Images, Installations, Popups.

Immunization entries are stored in the permissions.sqlite database of Mozilla Firefox. This database uses one table. It contains permission values for installing add-ons, cookies, pop-up and images. Usually value 1 is for allow item, 2 is for blocking the item and 8 allows an item for the session only.

To check the items and values of a permissions.sqlite database a user needs a forensic tool or a sqlite viewer.

If you would like to view the permissions.sqlite file, you can use a tool developed by Safer-Networking called FileAlzyer, which can be downloaded using the link below"

This is not what I meant. In Spybot, the immunization works just fine.

I was asking why the blocked cookies are no longer listed within Firefox?

That might be a question for Mozilla then, Firefox has frequent software updates.

What exactly does "open detailed view of Immunization" mean?
